 Having the checks only in the managed->unmanaged wrappers wouldn't
 reduce our performance in a significant way.

+I spoke to Jim Miller from the CLR group this week at Microsoft and he
+pointed out that once a stack overflow is caught the only thing that
+can be done is to shut down the process, he said that at that point
+attempting to recover is not possible and the internals of the class
+libraries and potential unmanaged frames is probably corrupt.
+
+The issue of finalization did come up, and this is part of the
+"corrupted internal state" that happens during a stack overflow condition.
+
+I have not looked at what Silverlight does (someone mentioned during
+the conversation that they just stop execution of the managed code and
+return an error).
+
+Under these conditions it does not seem worth to implement, I thought
+that Silvelright might be able to throw and have the exception be caught.
